Articolul initial, in care incepusem sa dezbat gandirea d-lui Nastase iesise mult prea lung. L-am spart in doua, precum Sgt John din marina britanica Titanicul.

Aproape de o luna imi bat creierii si tastatura cu pulitica rumuneasca si votul pres-e-dintelui. Si cand credeam / speram /simteam c-am terminat, vine si alpha(d/bl)og, care ignora cu parsivenie dezbaterea ce-o incepuseram, sa ma invite la un alt raspuns. Eu i-l dau, ca de ce nu?

Not only did Klaus Iohannis manage to snatch victory from the claws of the Red Menace, but he did so by a huge, devastating margin AND on the surge in voter participation not only in the diaspora, but also in our birthplace. It’s a November Christmas miracle! 

Cei doi proaspeti alesi reprezinta practic poluri opuse in preferintele blogosferei. In timp ce Iulian Urban este, probabil, printre cei mai contestati senatori, Varujan Pambuccian ramane cel mai sprijinit parlamentar de catre bloggeri si nu numai. Ambii au castigat in circumscriptiile respective.

This blog has a Romanian Diaspora focus, so it’s only natural to go through the diaspora news. But our diaspora is everywhere (much like protochronist Dacians), and some have even returned, while some feel “exiled” in their own country, so we’re not going to discriminate. Especially since we keep hearing bad things about Dinamo, one of the 3 major “national” soccer teams while I was growing up.

Is it fair to give special incentive to the diaspora to return home? Doesn’t that encourage more to leave only to get the money on coming back?

After #yeslavot let’s see who won and why..

Ca dupa fiecare alegere unde miza-i mare, oamenii interesati in rezultat si rezultatul strans, au aparut si vor apare acuzatii de fraudare. Eu nu cunosc exemple concrete, dar aud tot timpul de oameni care cunosc alti oameni care sunt siguri ca fraudarea s-a produs. Si-ncerc sa analizez broblemu'.

Iata ca m-am invrednicit si eu sa-mi pun pe hartie gandurile apropo de votul de azi. Am incercat sa citesc si cateva bloguri, dar opinia predominanta este ca trebuie sa votam nul fiindca asa, vezi Doamne, i-am pedepsi pe politicieni. Dupa cum i-am spus si lui Arhi, in comparatie cu ideea de a nu vota sau a vota nul, ideea de a-ti bea propria urina este geniala.

I have, in the past, dedicated ample space and time to the Romanian elections. Lately, I’m starting to get a feeling of futility. It’s a widespread disease.

In conditiile in care peste 99% din voturi au fost numarate, putem discuta despre rezultatele alegerilor. Ma refer in principal la alegerile diasporei, despre care am dat amanunte si am discutat candidatii. Aici vom discuta rezultatele intermediare.

Ma plangeam recent ca ma bombardeaza Adobe cu reclame, ca sa vin in tara sa lucrez pentru ei. S-ar zice ca nu numai in ce ma priveste pe mine strica ei orzul pe bonobo.

Hotnews has previously interviewed Romanian diaspora people, which we covered, and we have also been profiling others in the diaspora ourselves. This interview is somewhat new in that the interviewee is "returned" - and we expect to be many more like him in the coming years.

The elections for the European Parliament are coming up soon, and this time around, I decided to ask all candidates a few questions and post their answers. But before sending these questions, it makes sense to look at the details, the first and most important being that the voting day is May 26 between 7:00 and 21:00, local time (EST) and there’s not voting by correspondence.

Am descoperit un film care contine dovezi incontestabile si de nezdruncinat ca voturi au fost aproape vandute si cumparate in diaspora. Nu suntem siguri in acest moment daca filmarea a fost facuta in Toronto, Berceni sau Asia Minor. Cercetarile continua. (LE: Filmul a fost intre timp cenzurat de YouTube.)

Fur titlul de la Miruna fiindca nu ma pot gandi la altceva de cand l-am vazut. It’s a modern, localized take on the latest collaboration plagiarism of Shakespeare by Steinbeck.

Ca parte din diaspora si totusi interesat de ce ce intampla in tara, "online"-ul ocupa o pondere mult mai mare in sursele mele de informatie despre Romania - este, de fapt, aproape singura.

Are rost sa prezint gugumanii care au incetat sa existe? Evident ca da! Fiindca astfel de disparitii explica de ce adeverul nu mai poate fi gasit, iar restul (HotNews cu piggy math, ultimile codasi, umorul involuntar), vor urma probabil aceeasi soarta..

Din 2007 de cand am scris articolul si pana acum am facut o lista a blogurilor din diaspora pe care o poti gasi mergand la br.zamo.ca sau apasand pe Blogroll in menu-ul de sus.

There is open season on Viorica Dancila, the losing presidential candidate from PSD and former prime-minister of Romania. Today, Monday, she has even renounced the leadership of Socialist PSD, until not long ago the main Romanian party. For a contrarian such as myself, this is the perfect moment to announce my undying love for this misunderstood and not very presentable "prezidentiable".
